End
The survey personnel select the site and perform the site survey according to the
initial network planning. In the case that all the sites cannot meet the requirements,
the network planners are required to locate the search ring for candidate sites.
For the complicated coverage area, the network planners should perform the
practical propagation model test to verify whether the candidate site meets the
coverage requirements.
After the ideal sites are located, discuss with the landlord or land owner to ensure
that the land for ideal sites is available for purchase or rent.
If all the candidate sites cannot meet the requirements, reselect sites or modify the
coverage requirements. Be sure to map out a site selection plan meeting the
actual coverage requirements.
Before using the GPS at the top of the building, set the GPS
coordinates format to WGS-84, and set the latitude and longitude
format to XX.XXXX˚. The settings are subject to the requirements of the
telecom operator.
Based on the measured data by the GPS, fill in the XXX Project XXX
Site Survey Form.
Within 500 m around the site, record the height of buildings or natural
obstacles higher than the antenna (or with roughly the equal height) and their
distance to the site on each direction of the site. Start from the North.
If the antenna systems of other telecom operators exist near the site, record them.

Save the photos in the format that has a minimized size under the condition
that they can be displayed clearly.

Indoor jumper
Tower NodeB
The Tower Mounted Amplifier (TMA) is installed on the tower. It is close to the
antenna. Generally, the TMA is connected to the antenna through a 1/2 inch
jumper with the length 2–3 m. The received signals of the antenna enter the
TMA for amplification. With the TMA, the system sensitivity is effectively
improved and the uplink coverage is enlarged. Meanwhile, the TX power of the
mobile can be lowered. Thus, the system interference is reduced and the QoS
of speech services is improved.

Usually select the directional antenna with the horizontal half power
angel 60˚–65˚.
Generally select the antenna with the medium power gain around 15 dBi.
Preferably select the antenna with the electrical downtilt 2˚–6˚.
Preferably select the dual polarization antenna.

Antenna direction
Minimize the shadow area caused by the antenna in its coverage area.
Avoid the obstacles during the antenna installation. For example, install
the antenna at the edge on the top of the building, to prevent the building
top from obstructing the radio signals.
The interference between the GSM site and the NodeB can be analyzed in
the following respects:
Blocking effects on the NodeB by the GSM site
Spurious effects on the NodeB RX band by the GSM site
Blocking effects on the GSM site by the NodeB
Spurious effects on the GSM RX band by the NodeB
In the case of GSM+UMTS co-site, the antenna isolation should be greater
than 30 dB in general, to meet the isolation requirements on blocking and
spurious effects.
